Notes,Tips & Add-On's

1. I used frozen sweet corns and hence I didn't have the necessity to boil them.In case you don't have frozen ones,please ensure you boil them before using it.
2. I used brown bread as they give a nice color on deep frying.
3. While rolling the cheese balls,oil your hands so that the balls don't stick to your hands.
